A woman has been charged with the murder of her baby son and daughter.

The 10-week-old boy and his 14-month-old sister, Lily Sky Boots, were found unconscious on Wednesday evening by their father, Jeff Boots, when he returned from work to his home in Wandsworth, south-west London, sources said.

Metropolitan Police officers arrested their mother, Felicia, 34, at the semi-detached home after emergency services were unable to revive the children at the scene.

Scotland Yard said a 34-year-old woman had been charged with two counts of murder and would appear at South Western Magistrates Court in south London today.

A police spokesman said: "A 34-year-old woman has been charged with two counts of murder following the discovery of the bodies of a 14-month-old girl and a 10-week-old boy at an address in Killarney Road on Wednesday May 9."
